Come on in

Night beckons me to sleep,

The mixed emotions of dreams that await me are unknown

Will it be fear, anxiety, anger, or the faint longing of a passing by?

Last night was anxiety, unease, feeling impressed, and then being ignored.

Wishing for just one glimpse of a gaze,

An acknowledgment of my existence. Reality is what I received.

Sleep beckons me again, calls me to other worlds, other minds. Searching for something I may never find. False hopes keep the search alive.

And night calls me to a dream once more.
